CAIRO, Oct 2, 2018 (MENA) - The Cabinet Information Centre on Tuesday denied reports published by some electronic websites that the government will sell Manzala lake to an Arab country. The centre added in a report that it contacted the Ministry of Agriculture which denied the reports confirming that the lake is a public property and that it will not be hired or placed for investment in favour of any other country. According to the centre these false reports are meant to instigate the public opinion, the ministry asserted. The ministry further confirmed that all operations for removing violations around the lake and upgrading it target the residents living around it and will benefit the national economy.
